Description
A lovely spot for a wander
Hidden next to a water pond in Forde where you can take a walk and enjoy the water views. There are plenty of birds and surely some frogs about. Bring your geodogs or kids and enjoy the peace. I love all these new parks and water features in Canberra. A coupe of nearby caches too.

Out for a walk.
This cache is still at coords on the ground in the reeds but waterlogged. Hardly signable log. Needs somw TLC.

No luck for us here today as we found a nest but froggy must have been out for a swim.
I saw a mysterious cache on Facebook, found by someone who was trying to work out where it was meant to be.
I was quite curious about it all so did some sleuthing and figured out it was this cache!
I let the person know, and they went straight back out to hide it! How nice!
So I decided after all of that I better go find it myself as the curiousity was getting to me!
Took a few minutes to find, but soon located in the reeds near the water.
The amazing person who rescued this cache, and replaced it, didn't even sign the logbook! How sad after all that effort!
Oh well thanks for that, the cache is nice and safe now!
Only the 10th finder on a quick park and grab in over 3 years since it was placed is quite incredible....!

We like caching in the new northern suburbs of Canberra..... considering how many people must live here it's very quiet in the residential areas. It was no different here. Quickly spotted the cache as it was fairly obvious and lacking any of the hint. Signed the log and covered it better just in case some of those mysteriously absent people decide to make an appearance. TFTC Kittykatch.

GCA 1695. Found on a sunny afternoon after soccer.
After a successful trip south side for kids soccer we did the detour around this way for this find. Not exactly the hide I was expecting but found none-the-less !

#GA1187 - 15:45; Out on an afternoon caching run when I was passing this cache, so of course I stopped off for the find. Approached GZ and had a short hunt around before I spied the cache all safe and sound and well above the bigh water mark. TFTC Kittykatch

Over this side of time chasing a few scavenges and after a short walk, soon had the cache in hand. Signed log and returned cache, but today it quiet out there...not a sound to be heard.
Thanks KK....another one down.

On the way home from a sucessful scavenge, and I came by this one. TFTC KittyKatch!
Woohoo! FTF this morning while geocaching around Gungahlin! After quickly pulling up near GZ, we walked down the hill for a very quick find - very happy to see a blank log book. A lovely grassy spot in what is a very built up suburb everywhere else! TFTC KK!
HOWEVER, I'm sorry to sound desperate for Cerberus SSS points, but unfortunately SSS players will not be able to claim this for the game because the word needs to be "frog," not "frogs."
